One of the coolest parts of attending Designer Con 2012 was getting to see all 16 custom figures in DKE Toys’ “The Super Suck Up!” group art show. For this show each artist created a custom Sucklord figure with a limited edition run size of 50 pieces. Each figure was better than the next, and they all featured a hilarious blister card artwork by The Super Sucklord. Check them all out and just try to pick out a favorite! Every artist definitely brought their A game for this one!!!

NYCC 12 Exclusive Ivory Edition Misfortune Cat by Chris Ryniak

The New York Comic-Con 2012 Exclusive Ivory Edition Misfortune Cat was created by Ferg and is based on a custom Misfortune Cat designed by Chris Ryniak back in 2010. The Blot is kind of amazed by this Misfortune Cat colorway, it seriously looks like real ivory! Plus that lone blue eye really stands out against the figure’s off-white body.

The New York Comic-Con 2012 Exclusive Ivory Edition Misfortune Cat 4” vinyl figure has a limited edition run size of just 100 pieces, and can be purchased at the myplasticheart NYCC booth #3313 for $55 each.

Each 3.75” figure will come packaged in a blistercard designed by Sucklord and will retail for $100 each.
